It took me a week but it is done and cleared out and cleaned except for shampooing carpet and painting walls. Do you see the yellow wall down at the end? I did start painting several years ago and either I had visitors or a relapse of RA but for some reason I stopped and didn't get back to it.
Those doors lead to the other 2 bedrooms which are my crafts room and the guest room.
This is a crewel embroidery picture I did about 40 years ago!
This sign is for the grands when they come to "Camp Grandma"....I just leave it up as they are the only guests I ever have.
This is a Mary Englebreit poster that I love.....words of wisdom!
Here' s a better picture of the painted part of the hallway............
I took my walk and when I returned there were "treasures" in the mail! A sweet Valentine's Day card from Uriah........
and my natural dyeing book came from Thrift Books! Yippee!!! I'll be reading this one A.S.A.P.!
I did order my headlamp today and a few other groceries from Wally World to qualify for free shipping. I'm thinking maybe I should order some yarn for dyeing too?!? I won't be blogging on Saturday's as I am taking an official day off with no commitments of any kind. Plus, it's a craft day and I usually like to save my craft progress for Year of Projects post on Sunday.
Here are your "tidbits" for today...........
Just sharing my little Valentine flowers with you. If anyone knows what they are please tell me so I can take care of them properly.
and for the truth of the matter.............
Happy Trails!!!

aren't these the sweetest curtains? Here's the link
I'm finding so many lovely crochet patterns lately...like this one! I love the colors or at least the way they go from dark to light Here's the link
It's a free pattern on Ravelry
Congrats on completing the hallway. Your little plant is miniature Rose's. I love them and have had several but none of them live here. It is too dry and hot outside and my indoors does not have good window with enough sunlight. Look them up on google and they say how to take care of them.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!!
DeleteYep, my marbles are leaking out, one by one. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe hall looks great and you've worked hard all week. You deserve to take Saturday's off but I'm glad you told us because I would have wondered where you were tomorrow. I have a cross-stitch I made for my Mom before she died. I think it was about 45 years ago. It's one of my favorites because I made it for her although I have stitched much more intricate projects since then.
Have a wonderful Saturday Sam and have fun crafting.
Blessings,
Betsy
The best laid plans. I did some cross stitch but did some baking that needed done and chores....I have got to stop that and just craft!
DeleteThis cleaning project is amazing. I am in awe of you. I need to get myself in gear and attempt the same thing. I watched the videos you recommended with Cambrea.
ReplyDeleteOh, she will put all of us to shame by what she gets done in 1 day! But I figure even if I take longer I will make progress if I keep at it and lo and behold I have! It's such a great feeling! This coming week (and probably several more as it is hard to walk into the room) will be the craft room! It should be fun to find treasures I've forgotten about! I'm looking forward to it but when I look in there I wonder where I will start?!?! LOL!
DeleteYour hallway looks great! A job well done and you deserve to take a day off. I like your saying about the marbles... there's a hole in my bag too! Hope you are enjoying your day!
ReplyDeleteI'm following you now and I loved your post! I hope you come back to visit!
DeleteYour flower sure is pretty whatever it is:) I think I have a defective marble bag some days too! Glad you got your hall done! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, if I can just keep it alive!
DeleteOh, it must feel so good to clear and clean. I've stalled temporarily, but it's only because my get up and go got up and went. Hubs has been gone alot helping his mother out and you'd think I'd be motivated to get so much done. Just the opposite seems to be the case. I'm enjoying your progress, though. I love seeing your crewel work, and I imagine the Welcome and Camp Grandma signs make you smile. The Mary Englebreit poster is cute and clever.
ReplyDeleteDon't be hard on yourself. If I didn't want to move, sell the house and I wasn't this old I would postpone if I could but time is of the essence at my age.
DeleteI think your little plant is a 'Kalanchoe' which is part of the 'succulent' family. I believe you can grow them outside too if your winters are not too harsh but mostly, a sunny windowsill is best and after the flowers die back, you can encourage further growth by deadheading and repotting (at least that's how I keep mine going!). The shoots often become a tad 'leggy' so I just prune those parts off, to encourage new growth from the bottom of the plant. Great job on your hallway. I would come visit if I lived closer!!!Good weekend to you and I love your idea of a 'no-commitment' day!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I thought the leaves looked like it belonged to the succulent family. Thanks to you I may be able to keep it alive...I hope! I hope you are having a good weekend too!
DeleteCamp Gramdma sounds fun. Well done on all your hard work, it all looks great. Enjoy your ‘day off’.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteEnjoy your day off. I plan to crochet today too. After I get a bit more cleaning done.
ReplyDeleteI am just like you....I do other things and then I turn around and the day is gone and I didn't do what I wanted to do!
DeleteHi! Have tried to send the scone recipe to you twice but it keeps bouncing back to me as "undeliverable." Perhaps I need a new e-mail address for you?
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry! I have no email right now. When I wen to fiber I lost it and I got frustrated setting up a new one as it kept referring to my old one. Thank you so much but I will let you know when I get my new one. Again, I 'm so sorry.
DeleteCongratulations Sam!!! Your hallway looks fabulous! I love that needlepoint too.
ReplyDeletethank you, Rain! I am pleased to see some real progress around here finally!
